선천성 우심실 진성 게실을 동반한 이중방 우심실 수술 1례 보고 = Double Chambered Right Ventricle with Congenital Right Ventricular True Diverticulum -A Case Report-

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Congenital diverticula of the cardiac ventricle have been reported as arising either from the left ventricle or, rarely from both ventricles. A diverticulum arising from the right ventricle alone is very rare. Furthermore the diverticulum associated with double chambered right ventricle was extremely rare. We experienced a 62 years old female of double chambered right ventricle combined with congenital right ventricular true diverticulum. She had complained intermittent chest pain and mild dyspnea on exertion during 8 months. The chest X-ray and chest CT showed protruded abnormal density at anterolateral side of right ventricular outflow tract. Preoperative angiography demonstrated a double chambered right ventricle and a right ventricular diverticulum. In operative finding, there was found a anomalous muscle band, dividing the right ventricle into an inflow and outflow portion, and a 5x6cm sized right ventricular diverticulum arised from conus region with a stenotic orifice of 1.5cm in diameter. The diverticulum was open toward the infundibulum, and its orifice was approximately 1cm in diameter. On treatment, the diverticulum orifice was closed directly and the abnormal muscle band was resected in order to widen the right ventricular outflow tract. The postoperative result was satisfactory and good without specific complications.
